Shower tray repair in Salt, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage in a new bathroom and a crack across the base.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairing versus replacing in Salt

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Salt. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What affects the price in Salt
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
